UNSPSC 42191907: Medical or surgical instrument storage cabinets or chests

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a cabinet or safe to protect access to medical or surgical instruments in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 940320.

UNSPSC 42191907 Medical or surgical instrument storage cabinets or chests (Commodity) covers built-in and modular casework, cabinetry, and countertops installed in medical, correctional, and occupational health facilities. The recent solicitations under this code show state and local governments buying integrated millwork packages—including metal casework, phenolic and HPL laminate cabinetry, and solid surface countertops—for new or renovated institutional settings. Georgia's Department of Corrections solicited a complete millwork package for a new state prison facility requiring medical-area cabinetry meeting ADA accessibility standards and weight-bearing specifications; Washington State Ferries, through the Department of Transportation, sought occupational medical surveillance services (a mismatch with the code's nominal scope); and Sourcewell, a Minnesota cooperative purchasing vehicle, issued a law enforcement equipment RFP (also unrelated to medical storage cabinetry). The issuing bodies span state departments and cooperative purchasing consortia, with the cleanest recent match coming from a state correctional authority pursuing institutional casework for a new facility.

The code shows limited and geographically dispersed recent activity under its core scope. Georgia hosts the most relevant current opportunity: the Georgia State Financing and Investment Commission, on behalf of the Georgia Department of Corrections, is pre-qualifying millwork vendors via RFQ PE40900RFQC2027000000252 for Project No. GBA-198B, a new state prison facility in Davisboro, Georgia, with statements of qualifications due November 4, 2026; qualified vendors will receive an Invitation to Bid in February 2027, with installation running June 2027 through February 2028. The Georgia opportunity requires in-state business registration and current Georgia residency, grants reciprocal preference to in-state proposers, and encourages minority, woman, and small business participation. Washington State appears in a secondary opportunity, but the Ferries' medical surveillance RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) solicits occupational health services rather than storage cabinetry and represents a code tagging misalignment. The Sourcewell cooperative purchasing vehicle (RFP #061626, due June 16, 2026) solicited law enforcement equipment, unrelated to medical storage. Recent activity under the code's intended scope remains sparse.
